leanne.od agony auntat last!

someone who is regretting splitting up with their partner!

if you weren't happy in the relationship and you felt it better to be apart, then you absolutely did the right thing not just for you but for your ex aswel because you didn't give him false hope by staying for his sake.

enjoy you're life, young, free and single!!

make the most of it, you got you're whole life to settle into a relationship!!!

good luck!!!!

You sound like an intelligent sort of person!

You did the right thing, feeling the way you do. Don't have any regrets, because if you didn't feel anything towards him there was absolutely no point in continuing with it.

Enjoy Uni when you get there - you'll make lots of new friends and you'll get yourself highly educated provided that boys don't get in the way of your studies.

All the best

It's normal... never has happened to me (I'm with my first bf now, and I'd be devastated if we broke up)... but I've seen it happen.

I think it's fine, everyone's different. And you're actually very mature to decide for yourself, and not stay with him for pity or anything, because that wouldn't be ok.

If you didn't love him and din't want a boyfriend, then it's the right thing to do. You're not fooling him or yourself. Now he can move on and find someone who'll make him happier and you'll go have the life you want. So, it's normal and ok.

Cheers!

Danielepew agony auntIf you were not in love with him, then you did the right thing, for you and him. You are free to pursue your interests, and he is free to find someone else, too. You mention that he didn't take it well. It would have been much worse for him if you had kept him hanging on to false hopes.
